===Rack mount=== [[19-inch rack|Rack mount]] computer monitors are available in two styles and are intended to be mounted into a 19-inch rack: [[File:Rackmount-LCD.jpg|thumb|upright=1.0|A fixed {{convert|19|in|cm|adj=on}}, 4:3 rack mount LCD monitor]] ;Fixed A fixed rack mount monitor is mounted directly to the rack with the flat-panel or CRT visible at all times. The height of the unit is measured in rack units (RU) and 8U or 9U are most common to fit 17-inch or 19-inch screens. The front sides of the unit are provided with flanges to mount to the rack, providing appropriately spaced holes or slots for the rack mounting screws. A 19-inch diagonal screen is the largest size that will fit within the rails of a 19-inch rack. Larger flat-panels may be accommodated but are 'mount-on-rack' and extend forward of the rack. There are smaller display units, typically used in broadcast environments, which fit multiple smaller screens side by side into one rack mount.

The flat display is visible only when pulled out of the rack and deployed. These units may include only a display or may be equipped with a keyboard creating a [[Rackmount KVM|KVM]] (Keyboard Video Monitor). Most common are systems with a single LCD but there are systems providing two or three displays in a single rack mount system.
